Recipe Pro-tips
Make sure not to overcrowd the frying pan. I generally fry 4 or 5 pieces at once. Do not use a deep fryer for this recipe. If you try and drop spoons of this corn fritter batter into the oil, it will break apart. Therefore, just add about 1 cup of vegetable oil to a skillet. Then when the thick batter is added it stays together and makes a nice little disc. To keep the fritters crispy and warm while frying all of them, place them on a sheet pan lined with paper towels and a wire rack placed on top. Place the corn fritters on the rack and place in an oven that is set on warm 180-200 degrees Fahrenheit. Make sure that the oil is hot before beginning to fry. If you do not have a thermometer, you can check the oil by dropping a little batter into the oil. If the batter starts to bubble, the oil is hot enough to start frying. The oil should continue to bubble when frying the fritters. What to use if you don’t have pancake mix. 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt. Swap out the beer for lemon-lime soda. This will also add to the light and bubbly the batter. Add other flavors to the corn cake appetizer. Try adding a bit of sliced green onions, shredded cheese, or cooked bacon. They make delicious appetizers, and your guests are sure to rave about these little bites.Nutrition
